  A POP3 and IMAP4 mail retriever with reliable Maildir and command delivery.

  Summary of features:
  - Retrieve mail from an unlimited number of POP3/IMAP4 mailboxes and servers.
  - Support for POP3-over-SSL and IMAP-over-SSL, as well as SDPS
    WARNING: even with SSL, "no certificate or key validation is done." so
    that getmail does not detect or protect from man-in-the-middle attacks.
  - Support for multidrop or domain mailboxes.
  - Safe and reliable delivery to qmail-style Maildirs, as well as program
    (pipe) delivery for use with arbitrary external MDAs. Includes an MDA
    for mbox files that supports mboxrd format and fcntl-type flock locking.
  - Does not destroy information by rewriting mail headers.
  - Does not cause mail loops by doing SMTP injection, and therefore does
    not require that you run an MTA (like qmail or sendmail) on your host.
  - Can remember which mail it has already retrieved, and can be set to
    only download new messages.
  - Written in Python, and therefore easy to extend or customize.
  - Simple to install, configure, and use.

  =======================================================================

  The getmail rc file (configuration file) format has changed since
  version 3.x.  If you are upgrading from version 3, you will need
  to write a new configuration file based on the contents of your old one.
  The new file format resembles the old in many ways.

  Each account you retrieve mail from will require a separate rc file,
  but getmail can operate with multiple rc files simultaneously
  if you wish to retrieve mail from multiple accounts.
